| AC-17178 | We've implemented a new API endpoint for managing Pay Analytics API keys, allowing users to securely store and manage API keys for various Pay Analytics tenants. This feature enables authorized users to create, update, and delete API key entries without the ability to retrieve the key itself, ensuring security while streamlining integration with Pay Analytics. | ||
| AC-17239 | Compensation Admins can now efficiently filter goals in the Bonus Plan setup module by Type, Measurement, and Payout curve. This enhancement allows for quick filtering, with multi-selection support and clear tags to narrow down goal lists for streamlined payout curve assignment. | ||
| AC-17241 | A new "Bulk Assign" feature has been added to the Bonus Plans module, allowing Compensation Admins to assign payout curves to multiple goals at once. This functionality supports multi-selection of goals across pages and dynamically adjusts payout curve inputs based on the measurement units of selected goals, significantly reducing manual effort. | ||
| AC-17243 | The system now validates whether all goals in a bonus plan have a payout curve assigned and displays a warning modal if any are missing. This ensures Compensation Admins are aware that unassigned goals will be excluded from bonus calculations, allowing them to either proceed or return to complete the setup. | ||
| AC-17244 | The Bonus Plans list view has been updated to include a new "Goal Plans" column, which displays the number of goal plans within each bonus plan. The list now also includes streamlined filters for "In Use" status and overall Status (Published, Draft, Deactivated), providing a clearer and more organized overview. | ||
| AC-17248 | The Budget widget in the Team Planner is now consistently visible only when enabled in the compensation round configuration, ensuring managers and users HRBP role only see relevant budget information.
